Question
In a gusset base as shown in figure, the critical section for calculating thickness is
A.
1-1
B.
2-2
C.
3-3
D.
4-4
Answer ( Option B)

2-2

Solution

In a gusseted base, the base plate projects beyond the outer edge of the gusset angle and behaves like a cantilever.
The maximum bending moment occurs at the fixed end of this cantilever, i.e., at the outer face of the gusset angle.
Therefore, the critical section for calculating the thickness of the base plate is Section 2–2
